You probably didn't think you'd be hearing new K-Ci & JoJo today, but sometimes Mondays work out that way. The brothers return this week with a sensual bedroom jam, "Knock It Off," a taste of their forthcoming record which is expected in the fall. It's been 16 years since the duo debuted.
As promised, Big Sean has delivered his new single. "Beware," featuring Lil Wayne and Jhené Aiko, releases to iTunes at midnight on Tuesday (Monday night). The track comes off the rapper's forthcoming album, Hall of Fame, which arrives on Aug. 27.

UPDATE: Mayer has revealed that the new album, Paradise Valley, will arrive on Aug. 13.
On Monday, John Mayer teased a new single was coming soon. And on Tuesday, he made good on his word and revealed "Paper Doll," the first track off his forthcoming album, Paradise Valley.
Two unexpected acts collide in this fresh, new tune from Avicii, featuring the vocals of Aloe Blacc. An unfinished version of "Wake Me Up" has been floating around the Internet for a few weeks, but the final product debuted over the weekend on BBC Radio 1, and it's pure magic. Avicii ditches his usual DJ-synth mixes for a folksy blend of dance that surprisingly meshes very well with Blacc's unique, soulful voice.
John Legend has unveiled a new single off his forthcoming album. "Made to Love," co-written by Legend and Dave Tozer, describes the song's subject (fiancée Chrissy Teigen?) as a work of art.
To mark Father's Day, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis have re-released their 2010 track, "Stay At Home Dad," which was initially produced for their Vs EP. The cut pays tribute to the dads who stay home taking care of the kids while their other half brings home the bacon. In true Macklemore fashion, the song pushes back against stereotypes of gender roles, something of a hot topic recently as new data shows females are increasingly becoming the breadwinner of their household.

It's official. The Civil Wars will return with their self-titled album on Aug. 6. After making clear last month that they intended to release another album this summer, the duo on Tuesday made official the release date. But they didn't do so empty-handed.
